Weisz will star as a character based on Kathryn Bolkovac, a real-life American cop who went to work security in post-war Bosnia in 1999, only to uncover the sexual abuse of teenage girls at the hands of United Nations police.

Bolkovac claimed she was fired after she sent emails to her superiors at DynCorp, a private security firm contracted by the U.N., detailing the exploitation of women as young as 15 at the hands of the people sent to protect them, the New York Times reported in 2002.
